alive. It shows us who we are and where we come from.There are some simple ways to protect it.

Peer pressure is when people your age try to make you do something. It can be good or bad,
depending on the situation.Good peer pressure can help you. For example, if your friends study
hard or join school clubs, you may feel motivated to do the same. This helps you become more
active and responsible.However, peer pressure can also be harmful. Some students may feel
pushed to skip class, lie to parents, or try smoking or drinking just to fit in. This can lead to bad
habits and stress.Peer pressure is strong, but you don’t have to follow others if it feels wrong. It’s
important to think for yourself and choose good friends who respect your choices.
In the end, the right friends can help you grow in a healthy and positive way.

There are many ways to protect endangered species. First, we can organize events like
Endangered Species Days to help people learn about rare animals and why they are
important.Second, we can raise money to protect wildlife. This money can help build safe places
for animals to live. People can donate or join fundraising events.Another way is to stop cutting
down trees. Deforestation destroys animal homes. If we protect forests, we protect animals
too.We also need strong laws to stop illegal hunting. These laws can stop people from killing
animals for fur or tusks. Also, we should not buy animal products like ivory or fur.Finally,
building more nature reserves can give animals safe places to live.In conclusion, protecting
endangered species is very important. If we all help, we can save many animals and protect the
planet.
